Poker Face is Finally Back!

Yes, that’s right, Cale-Heads! Poker Face is back!

As you probably already know, this project is a collaboration between director Rian Johnson and actress/producer Natasha Lyonne, who plays Charlie Cale, a sort-of-PI on the lam who can intuitively tell when people are lying.

Season One premiered in January 2024 and Season Two is finally here! According to Variety, it will be premiering sometime this spring on the streaming service Peacock.

 Lyonne and Johnson released a joint statement about the Season, which said:

“Charlie Cale is back on the run, and in Season 2 we’ve taken her journey to the next level one murder mystery at a time. From minor league baseball to big box retail, from funeral homes to alligator farms and even a grade school talent show, Charlie navigates her crime solving existential road-trip with deadpan wit, human empathy, and her signature uncanny lie-detecting ability.”

Season Two contains twelve episodes and will purportedly feature such guest stars as (in alphabetical order by first name): Alia Shawkat, Awkwafina, Ben Marshall, B.J. Novak, Carol Kane, Cliff “Method Man” Smith, Corey Hawkins, Cynthia Erivo, David Krumholtz, Davionte “GaTa” Ganter, Ego Nwodim, Gaby Hoffmann, Giancarlo Esposito, Haley Joel Osment, Jason Ritter, John Cho, John Mulaney, Justin Theroux, Kathrine Narducci, Katie Holmes, Kevin Corrigan, Kumail Nanjiani, Margo Martindale, Menalie Lynskey, Patti Harrison, Sam Richardson, Sherry Cola, and Simon Rex.

Variety also has exclusive photos from the season, including one of Natasha Lyonne and three Cynthia Erivos (apparently she plays sextuplets), and one of Lyonne and John Mulaney.

This is shaping up to be a very satisfying spring!
